1. India needs to amplify public spending in Health care from 1% of GDP to 3% of GDP — as per ES2019-20 + same has also envisaged in National Health policy 2017
2. Why India needs to increase public health expenditure ?
Because WHO report says that India has high out-of-pocket expenditure on health as compared to global average.
3. Hence, to tackle the double challenge of increased public spending + maintaining fiscal prudence —> we need additional sources of financing.
4. Solution —> ECO TAX RATE
5. currently, India's approach is command & control towards tackling pollution but eco tax that is in commensuration with social cost arising from the negative externalities is better option.
6. in the end, we can take example from European countries, which shows that this additional tax has no impact on the GD

China to allow couples to have third child
Context:
Days after China’s census data showed population growth slipping to its slowest rate since the 1950s, the country has announced it will now allow three children per married couple.
Firstly, why was one-child policy implemented?
China embarked upon its one-child policy in 1980, when the Communist Party was concerned that the country’s growing population, which at the time was approaching one billion, would impede economic progress.
Criticisms associated with this policy:
Chinese authorities have long hailed the policy as a success, claiming that it helped the country avert severe food and water shortages by preventing up to 40 crore people from being born.

#Expected topics for Prelims 2022.
Generally, UPSC lags in giving due attention to the topics which were the most in the news.
E.g. UPSC did not gave any direct question on COVID-19 in both prelims 2020 and 2021, when all were studying it.
But there are high chances that UPSC will now focus on the learnings of COVID-19🦠.
So do revise this very important portion as well!!!
We will also be sharing the related information on it in coming days.
